[Identifying and caring for minors who have been victims of incest in a pediatric unit for children at risk (Uaped)].

Abstract

The paediatric reception unit for children at risk plays an active role in raising awareness and training caregivers in the region, to facilitate the identification and care of children who are victims of sexual violence within the family (incest), within the hospital where it is based, and through its close links with child protection agencies. The nursery nurse is an essential member of this team, with her in-depth knowledge of children and their development from 0 to 18 years of age.
